A SPANISH OUTRAGE.
An American Bark Seized and Soda
suit for Damages.
PHILADELPHIA. Feb. 81

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 81.
The Record publishes the details of an
other of those outrages which American
shipmasters encounter in Spain and its prov
iDces. The report comes from Malaga,
Spain, where the Philadelphia bark G. Rem
senses was seized and sold after having been
detained over two years. The trouble arose
mainly from the heavy debt forced upon the
bark by Samuel Dabney, American consul at
Faysl, Azores Islands,
The Rensenscs sailed from New York the
latter part of 1884 for Malaga with general
cargo of merchandise, and bv reason Of
heavy weather she was obliged to put into
Fayal as harbor of refuge. A board Of
survey was called by the master of the Rem
senses, who contended that the necessary re-
pairs ould amount to more than the value
of the bark and that she should be condemned
and abandoned to the underwriters Consul
Dabney, who is dealer in vessels supplies,
insisted on repairing the bark, which he did.
taking in payment bond payable on the
vessel and cargo when she arrived at Malaga
The owners found their craft hopelessly in
debt. Their only salvation would be to get
her home, where the obligation could be paid
debt contracted outside of Spain or her
dominions could not be enforced within her
provinces. In spite of all this the vessel was
seized and a writ issued for her confiscation,
and for two years she was in charge OF Span
ish officials, rotting at a wharf. A suit for
damages has been brought against the Span
ish government, which demand is in the
hands of Secretary Bayard.

Charles Bryant, employed by Lawrence

His companions not hearing anything from
him, proceeded to where he had gone and
there oeheld sickening spectacle. Lying in
an almost unreCognizable heap was their
friend who had left them but 90 short time
before, mangled and dying.
1t seems that he had put the belt on the
drum and was returning to his work when
some nuts projecting from the main shaft,
which revolves at a speed of 225 times per
minute, caught into his clothing and he was
whlrled round and round until at last he was
cast from it.
He was tenderly taken up and placed upon
sled, and while on the way home he re-
gained consciousness, and turning to his
companions teebly whispered that his only
remembrance was of slipping and falling on
belt DR.. Strout was quickly summoned,
| and upon examination found that the ribs on
his left side just below the heart were broken,
| resulting in internal hemorrhage, from which
he died five hours after meeting with the &C.

tanned, but he was about % yeare old and

A NEW ENTERPRISE.
st. Albans to Have Corn Gamma &
Factory.

ST. ALBANs, Feb. 21.
A town meeting was held at St. Albans,
Saturday, called to see if the town would loan
its credit to the amount of $4,000 to Mr.. l..
Phinney of Stroudwater, to build and operate
a corn canning factory, also to decide whe the
the town should exempt such an enterprise
from taxation for term OF years. The
first question was quickly disposed of as IL
was found the proposed loan could not be
legally made, but the proposition to exempt
the factory from taxation for term OF years
was carried almost unanimously. A com
mittee of ten was raised to arrange for funds
to forward the enterprise, with every pros
pect of its being carried through. 1t Is ex
pected that Mr.. Phinney will at once com
mence the erection of suitable buildings.

HARTFORD, CT, Feb. 81.
This afternoon John Hopper, German
rag picker, aged sc years, was snowballed by
a party of school boys. He caught Willie
Shepard, aged nine years, and kicked him
brutally on the head, causing conclusion of

afterwards it was discovered that he had at

BASE BALL.
One Club to Dfsband to Make Room for
Another.

PITTsBURG, Feb. 81.
special committee appointed bv the Ma.
tional Base Ball League to decide which
club should disband to make room for the
Pntsburgs, and to distribute the players of
the disbanded club. is in session today. The
question at issue is between the St. Louis
Maroons, Kansas Ci,ys and Indianapolis.
Representatives of these clubs were present
to urge their claims. The general impress
sion seems to be that the Kansas Citys will
be the lucky club.
The committee was still in session at this
afternoon with no prospect of arriving at an
early decision.
Shortly after o'clock this afternoon Geo
w. Burnhnm of Indianapolis came from the
committee room. To the newspaper men he
declared that all was up. II have been in
formed" said he, "that Kansas City's pur-
chase of the Maroons' franchise has been
ratified. The league committee has not noti-
fed US of their action but am informed that
they are in favor of Kansas City. The price
paid is $26, 900, which includes Denny Glass
cock and the entire lot of players"
The base ball committee who have been
considering the claims of Kansas City and
Indianapolis for a place IN the national
league, came TO no conclusion TODAY, but
poetpouct dClluu uuiI tnc regular ItaRue
meeting in New York March T. Menges,
representing the "Cowb boys" said he was
prepared to outbid any money proposition
made by the Hoosiers to the ex ent of $4,000,
and he was authorized to say that his club
would be willing to paw railroad and other
expenses of the clubs to Kansas City from
ST. Louis. The indianapolis representative
could only offer $4,000 for the St. Louis
charter, but argued that their city was much
better located than Kansas City, and would
agree to put stronger club in the field.
They would probably be in a position to offer
a higher bid for the franchise. Both appli
cants contended that if they purchased the
Maroons' franchise they should have all the
players, President Day said it would take
$50, 900 at least to enter the league.
